The project is already in the works, with Laura sharing some behind-the-scenes snaps from set.
She shared a picture of herself in wet Newcastle getting into her trailer which revealed her character’s name – Michelle.
She went on to post a snap of her in the makeup chair getting ready to film a scene.
“Get into the movies they said… it will be really glamorous they said @goldfinchuk,” she captioned the post.
